  1. I remember an article that Phil posted about dye being used to determine natural reproduction. Maybe Phil will chime in.
  2. If a person was a "good" guide, why would you schedule a trip knowing it wasn't the right time. I mean, I get it, the money's good, but I would feel terrible if I didn't give my customers the best chance of success. Why didn't he just say "I only striper guide on (blank days, and blank times of year)? No I can't do it at 2pm in the summer, unless you just want a boat ride?? I don't understand. I do know a lady would catches them in August on Norfolk 👍
  3. I would still like to have Randy's boat, I thinks it's a real bargain at 25 ! I need a tractor though.😪
  4. I have no idea, credit I guess.
  5. I would bet some members would trade a day of fishing with you, for some walleye fishing tips. You could guide us, in our own boats. Win win !
  6. You can also fish with me,,,I'm not a good guide, but I do have a boat with a couple extra seats😁
  7. I always have a tough time in the day on full moon nights, but I think you all did great !
  8. I still have this Berkley lightening rod. I am using a 1/2 oz spoon. I like the way this rod loads up.
  9. Me too ! 6' 6" med fast I love mine. I have 2, if I brake one I will cry. $50 or so. I really don't know what you get for the extra $90?
  10. Personally I think the spoon bite is so fun !
  11. October will be killer on the gravel i bet !! Maybe no dang wake boats from the ocean...i meant ships🤬
  12. Those good ones, that's a great place too!
  13. I hope so. I plan on being less informative about the techniques, even though it's not in my nature. We will see how that goes, I love helping people be productive.
  14. I will put some in the box next year ! They were all nice, healthy, and fat. It's good to see.
  15. I know the pics are terrible, I was busy, i sure wish i had the gopro with me, it would have been epic!
  16. I got an early start. Put in at Campbell point, to target walleye. I tried a couple spots, nothing. Time for the bottom bouncer. I picked a channel swing with a gravel run out, picked up one 17 incher and a bunch of really small but feisty bluegill. I soon got tired of that. Went to another channel swing with a nice step, hit the spot lock, dropped a spoon(Binks many shad silver) and bam ! Found them ! I caught 19, 17" walleye and one 18" several spots, two were keepers, one fat white bass came off at the boat. It was nuts ! Then at 11am when the 1st wake boat plowed by, it was over. I have caught several walleye on tablerock but nothing this exciting ! You don't know how tempting it was to throw those 17" walleye in the box, they were fat, but I did not.
  17. I think I see a couple walleye on the bottom 😁
  18. No they wanted to play, then I got a couple hours of lake time to myself.
  19. My wife and I were commited to taking the grandchildren out for some lake fun. So we when for it Saturday afternoon. I still got some fishing in, and I found a really great drum bite right before dark😷
  20. I have thrown a jigging spoon into those, you can launch one of those things 50 yards, count to 2 then drop the rod tip and start working it back like a spook. You will at least get some followers. The thing looks just like a minnow running for it's life🤣
  21. I tried a couple things, fish are feeding in open water on bait fish. If you hear fish busting water it's probably not carp, I will have a fluke or paddle tail handy next trip.
  22. I used to hope to retire on the lake somewhere, but not any more. I thought maybe bull would be a good fishery with more economical living, as long as a guy could get above the high water line. Listening to all the commotion would drive me crazy, I think....crazier.
  23. I wonder how much fuel those things go through in a day. I bet it's crazy !
  24. Not sure about perfection but I would gladly show you what little I know. Thank you.
  25. The wife and I wanted to see if her 2016 Toyota rav 4 would pull our 2004 tracker deep V 17, so we hauled the pair to Stockton. We go a late start, but we made it just fine. Marked fish from 0 to 30 ft or so, spooned up a few bass in the mid 20 foot range. They liked the 1/2 Binks blue and chrome. It was hot !
